Two paths to learning support.

We plan 1,000 resource awards across Australia, separate from lessons donated by tutors at no charge to families.

No scholarship places are open yet. Applications are recorded and held until a place can be offered.

A scholarship placeNot open yet
A donated tutoring place opens only when all three conditions are met.

What each scholarship provides

1,000 resource awards

Platform-funded · applications not open yet

We plan 1,000 awards in total for learners in Australia, giving each recipient free access to learning resources.

Donated tutor lessons

Tutor-donated · applications held

For each awarded lesson, the tutor gives their time, we waive our platform fee, and the learner pays nothing. That learner also receives free access to learning resources, outside the 1,000 awards.

Who can apply for donated tutoring

Families unsure which group fits can describe their circumstances in the application.

  • Families holding a Health Care Card or Pensioner Concession Card
  • Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander students
  • Refugee and newly arrived families
  • Families in regional and remote Australia
  • Any family who cannot meet the cost of tutoring
What a place includes

Each award states its subject, its number of sessions and its period before the family accepts it. A family may apply again when an award ends.

Why access matters

The learning gap between students from lower- and higher-education families grows from about ten months in Year 3 to about two and a half years by Year 9. Source: Grattan Institute, “Widening gaps” (2016).

These details are used only to assess scholarship eligibility and contact you about the application. Access is restricted to the team responsible for the program.
